Hi everyone,  
I am very new to Linux and got started with Fedora. Coming from mac, I already like the privacy aspect with the fact that it doesn’t call a million services all the time.  
However, I also want to be mindful of security and want to work on hardening it. I couldn’t really find much in other threads. Does anyone has specific recommendations or a guide to refer me to? I’ve started looking this up online, but I value the input of the community here so I thought I’d ask.  
Thanks!
